    If you want wheels that are functional lightweight wheels, go with the spoon. If you want to look like you have spoon wheels, but dont care about the weight difference, go with rota. I think the rota's are about 3 times heavier than the SW388's

    in my opinion if you buy these you are just a whore... simple as that, because there are no major functional differences when your putting them on a 140hp civic.

    don't get me wrong... i love me some JDM hottness and there are some situations in which fake or imitation wheels are absolutely awful so this debate should mostly go for this style wheel. and let's not too personal here

    the pictures below are of the rota and the spoon... i think the big one is the rota and the small one is the spoon

    alright well let the debate begin. in the words of MXC Challenge "LET'S GET IT ON!"
    Thats like saying "lets go buy a hyundia cause its cheap and looks similar to a honda."

    yeah boy... cause a $1300 set of wheels is def. comparable to a $13-16,000 car...

    that's not a reasonable argument by any means. most people won't get a hyundai because they can't afford a honda. they're just going to get a cheaper honda. and you dont buy a honda because your concerned about weight reduction from a hyundai, and MOST people arent going to break the bank and buy a brand new honda simply for the fact that they are a honda whore. AND hyundai's dont even look similar to honda!

    so try another analogy and we'll go from there
